I'm setting up a new RAID array and I was planning on going RAID 1, primarily because of I've read in many places that unrecoverable read errors can occur during a rebuild of RAID 5 arrays. These errors apparently cause the rebuild to fail.
Just wondering if the Windows 8.1 "parity" setting in storage spaces in vulnerable to the same issue, or does it work in a different manner than RAID5.
Ideally I would like to choose Parity, since performance is not an issue and I could use the extra space, but I don't want to run into unrecoverable bits during rebuilds.
Any insights?
